Trendy 'Raw Water' Can Reportedly Give You Hepatitis, Other Diseases

A glass orb of the untreated spring water is $36.99, and it costs $14.99 for a refill.

But by shunning recommended water safety practices, experts warn, raw water purveyors may also be selling things you don't want to drink - risky bacteria, viruses and parasites that can make you sick.

This company's stand against filtered, treated water has already found fertile ground in the minds of plenty of people in Western California, riding on the public outrage around the water crisis in the city of Flint, Michigan.

Another cause of worry is that spring water comes in contact with various chemicals while it passes through soil and rocks which can be even poisonous so the impact can be extreme. Making up to 10 liters (2.6 gallons) of it a day, the water is put through a mineralized filter and diverted straight to the household's kitchen tap.

San Franciscans are opting to ditch bottled water in pursuit of alternatives that are less commercial.

"There are many sources of water contamination, and some of those sources are naturally occurring", Hill said in an interview with Live Science.
